I'm 21 weeks with my second. In 2009 my husband and I moved to the Springs between 20 and 21 weeks with my daughter. While my husband is Air Force since I am enrolled in Tricare Prime I was seen for all pregnancy related stuff at Fort Carson facilities. I HIGHLY recommend the Premier clinic if you are not living on post/base. This is a quick run down of pregnancy info related to Fort Carson.

If you are low risk it is almost guaranteed that you will be seen by a midwife I've found. My favorite is at the Premier clinic, her name is Altenberg. Second is Nelson. The few times I've been into Evans to see the on call doctor my favorite was Luthien (sp?) but I'm not seeing him on the website anymore. Crisp delivered my daughter (you get whoever is on call). I did find out that there is almost always a midwife on call in addition to the doctor so you can get a midwife to deliver if you want.

1) See PCM for pregnancy test.2) Get referral to Fort Carson OB/GYN----You have a couple choices here dependent on where you live. If you live on Fort Carson you will probably want to be seen at the hospital. There is the Premier clinic in the middle of the Springs (my choice based on location). If you will be considered low risk there is a midwife available at both Peterson AFB and the Academy.3) 8 week education meeting (I did this around 23? weeks in 2009, so they will make you do it if you PCS in)----Basic vital statistics taken. Meet with an OB educator. Receive the "Purple Book" (great resources and way to keep track of your stats and questions, also has the timeline for appointments).4) Monthly checkups begin, first will be an annual exam.5) 20 week ultrasound performed by a technician.

Good Evening Ladies!
